This week marks 59 years since our revolutionary ancestor, Malcolm X, was assassinated.

The late great Dick Gregory, a renowned actor, comedian and activist, was Malcolm X's close friend. In this passionate and revealing address, Gregory tells the story of how the people forced the US government to reveal the facts about Malcolm X's 1965 assassination. Information obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request demonstrated bullets that took Malcolm X's life were shot from above him, rather than from the guns of brothers who stood below the stage.

Decades later, Malcolm X's family has begun the process of suing the New York Police Department, the CIA and the FBI for their role in the Organization of Afro-American Unity founder's assassination. This comes on the heels of two brothers, who had served prison time and were exonerated in the case, winning settlements in 2022 totalling $36 million from the governments of both New York City and New York State. One of the men filed a federal lawsuit in November to enquire about the FBI's role. He seeks $40 million.
